A brief intermission

Hello Faithful readers! (do I have readers?  I'm still not convinced, you're a quiet bunch...)  Alas, I want to apologize for the lack of bloggitude lately.  It seems that being a Woman of the World leaves me not much time to update the masses on my whereabouts.  Also, a computer that's acting a bit wonky lately is also preventing that...  So here's a quickie to hold you over until there next installment of What in the World is Sierra Doing Today?!

I am currently in beautiful Paris, France.  I arrived Sunday night after a very fun and spontaneous long weekend in London.  Here's the short story of it (you KNOW the long version will come later)
Last wednesday I met up with my friends Peter and Meghan (a potsdam graduate from my horn studio) for a bit of sight-seeing in London.  We saw all the major tourist attractions - the london eye, parliment, buckingham palace, etc- and then saw the Lion King on the West End.  It was amazing.  The next day I wandered around alone, saw some more cool stuff.  Then Friday I met up with my friend Shari (also a potsdam alum, you'll notice a trend soon) and hung out with her in Canary Wharf.  On Saturday I attempted to get tickets for a footie match (Arsenal vs. Bolton) but that didn't work, so I found a pub close to the stadium, had myself a pint and watch the game with the locals.  After that I headed to London Bridge, with the mission of taking pictures of Tower Bridge.  I was successful.  It was awesome,  and I found the Thames Festival  - a huge street fair along the river.  But unfortunately, it's a little lonely to be at those things by yourself.  So I decided to head back to my hostel with the plan of having an early night in (on a saturday, in london - BORING).  Luckily, I befriended some crazy Welshmen on the Tube and they invited me out for a night of drinking.  It was AWESOME!  These guys are all about my age, live in london, and were definitely a good time.  So we drank, we talked, we wandered to a few different bars, and then we realized that I have no idea what time my coach to Paris was!  AHHH. So after some quick thinking and quicker money-dropping, I bought a new ticket, and got myself to the coach with enough time to spare. 
And now I'm in lovely Pariiiii, with my lovely friend Ana, and I've been "seein the sights" as it were.

So there you have it folks, I am not dead, but I am in fact deliriously happy to be seeing the world, making new friends, and eating good food.

I must leave you all now, as today's agenda includes the Funicular of Montmarte, a look around Sacre Coeur, possible a walk over to La Tour Eiffel, and crepes by the River Seine with Ana in the evening!  (Are you jealous yet?  Cuz you should be!)

Au Revoir, mes petits chou!
